Garage clearance in Aalst: our approach
In Aalst, the small workers' houses along the Dender rarely have a real garage: it is often an outbuilding at the back of the yard, holding bikes, tools and DIY leftovers. In sections such as Erembodegem, Moorsel, Hofstade or Baardegem, family homes lived in for decades by the same people have a well-stocked garage and garden shed: workbench, drills, lawnmower, garden furniture, winter tyres. We clear that space on its own, before a sale or simply to fit a car back in. A complete, well-kept set of tools can cover a good part of the clearance cost.
- House garage: workbench, shelving, tyres and cans built up over the years.
- Car-park lock-up: headroom, badge and co-ownership rules checked before the day.
- Garden shed: tools, garden furniture, lawnmower drained before transport.

Garage, lock-up or shed in Aalst: access, tools and hazardous waste
The calendar matters in Aalst: during the carnival, before Ash Wednesday, the centre is largely closed to traffic and we do not work there. The rest of the year, a temporary parking ban requested a few days ahead from the city, stating the address and duration, is enough to park the vehicle in front of a garage. For an outbuilding at the back of a yard near the Dender, we carry everything to the street. Sorting happens on site: tools and machinery assessed for resale, bikes offered to the social economy, freezers into the Recupel scheme, tyres back through dealer take-back, fuel drained from the lawnmower. Oil cans, paint, thinners, batteries and gas cylinders are never mixed and go to a specific collection. ILvA's recycling parks are for residents; our loads follow other suitable channels.
Aalst garage clearance: Gijzegem, Herdersem, Meldert and the centre
Aalst's centre is lined with terraced houses and shop premises. In the latter, the storage space is often at the back or in the basement behind the shop: if access is shared, we agree the time with the shopkeeper, and the shop can usually stay open while we load.
In the outlying sections, logistics get simpler. In Gijzegem, Herdersem, Meldert or Nieuwerkerken, family houses with gardens are easier to load, often right in front of the garage door, which shortens the day. Even during carnival, a job in Moorsel or Baardegem, far from the parade, is sometimes still possible if access is unaffected. The rest of the year, we apply to the City for the parking ban, stating the address and duration. When a house is going on sale, clearing the garage first often lets you take the listing photos sooner.

How it works
Photos or visit: Garage, workbench, shelving and access are assessed from photos where possible, otherwise during a free visit. · Value and quote: The value of resaleable tools is deducted: free clearance, difference paid to you or a fixed written price. · Sorting by route: Resale, donations, metal, Recupel, tyres and hazardous products are separated, never mixed. · Garage swept: The garage, lock-up or shed is left empty and swept, with a photo if you are away.
